MICROSCOPE COMPONENTS  

OBJECTIVES

The optical systems which magnify the primary image of the instrument. Microscopic magnfica-

tions are 4X, 10X, 40X. The macroscopic magnification is 1X. The magnification of the objective 

combined with the magnfication of the eyepiece gives a total 10X macroscopic magnification 

of the subject, and allows for total microscopic magnifications of 40X, 100X and 400X.

SIEDENTOPF (SILVER3H-B only) 

A binocular head design where the interpupillary adjustment (increasing or decreasing the 

distance between the eyepieces) is achieved by pivoting the eyepiece tubes in an up and 

down arc motion similar to binoculars.

STAGE RING

The  circular ring located in the center of the microscope that supports the stage plate, 

black/white contrast plate, or specimen cup. These components are held onto the stage ring 

with a thumbscrew.

STAGE CLIPS 

A pair of flexible metal clips attached by spring screws hold the slide in position on the stage.
